We Shall Sleep, But Not Forever

Author: Mary A. Kidder Hymnal: Christian Hymns #50 (1935) Lyrics: 1 We shall sleep, but not forever, There will be a glorious dawn! We shall meet to part, no, never, On the resurrection morn! From the deepest caves of ocean, From the desert and the plain, From the valley and the mountain, Countless throngs shall rise again. Refrain: We shall sleep, but not forever, There will be a glorious dawn! We shall meet, to part, no, never, On the resurrection morn! 2 When we see a precious blossom, That we tended with such care, Rudely taken from our bosom, How our aching hearts despair! Round its little grave we linger, Till the setting sun is low, Feeling all our hopes have perished With the flower we cherished so. [Refrain] 3 We shall sleep, but not forever, In the lone and silent grave: Blessed be the Lord that taketh, Blessed be the Lord that gave, In the bright, eternal city, Death can never, never come! In His own good time He’ll call us, From our rest, to home, sweet home. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [We shall sleep, but not forever]
